Over 89 percent of residents of Omaha self-report a health status of “Good” or better, a much higher ratio than the national average. With that said, the leading cause of death in Omaha is heart disease followed by cancer, the same as in most other large cities in the United States. The mortality rate of diabetes in Omaha is higher than the mortality rate in both Nebraska and the United States as a whole. With 22.7 deaths for every 100,000 people in the Omaha area due to diabetes, the government has set goals to reduce that number significantly by the year 2020. The mortality rate due to diabetes is much higher among the African American population of Omaha, where it causes 46 deaths for every 100,000 African American residents in the metro area.

Education is an issue in Omaha, where 9.3 percent of the population has not achieved a high school education. While this number is better than the national rate of 14 percent, it is still a large portion of the population that is undereducated. Public health policy in Omaha needs to be catered to address the portion of the population who may not have received a basic education.
